Page up/down, home/end doesn't work. Page scrolling (by pressing/holding above/below the handle in scrollbar) is not working. No button up/down in scrollbar (and ability to just hold them to continue scrolling) - I guess this is optional for "cleanliness". Pressing space key doesn't scroll one page down. Scroll speed when using scroll wheel is too slow.

Scrolling while selecting text (by moving mouse above or below where page is on screen) doesn't work. In the past I managed to get mouse events outside of the page area by attaching the mouse handler to "window" instead of "document" (at least in Firefox at the time, not sure about Chrome).

Text selection should highlight a character when the mouse is beyond mid point and not after the whole character. Double clicking should highlight a word, triple clicking should highlight a paragraph. When clicking more times it should cycle. It should also support dragging after double/triple click to continue selection of more words/paragraphs.

URLs are not shown when hovering over links. Ideally some invisible overlay that is actually a real link would be preferrable. This way all the ways to open links would work.

The color scheme button is almost invisible.
